VSTO Powerpoint 2010 Shared ToggleButton On Multiple Document Windows?
Jan 4, 2012
Create a simple VSTO Powerpoint 2010 AddIn with 1 toggle button inside the Ribbon.Open several presentations, then clik on the toggle button.he checked state of the toggle button is shared between all document.
I am designing a shared add-in using VB.Net 2008 and VSTO that has to fire up when any MS Office App is started. It has to work for both 2002, 2003 and 2007 applications. I have managed to put together a working add-in that pops up a test message stating the version of Office and the Application name and tested this across all the apps ok.
The next part of the solution is to code the application specific code that needs to run for document auditing and corporate protective marking as well as, for example; in Excel checking that all the Add-Ins are linked to the Network Add-Ins folder.
My approach from now was going to be to late bind against the application object and set one of my typed (e.g. Excel) application object references which exist in the code to this object.
I've never worked with VSTO and I've recently read all kinds of stuff about it. So I ask a theoretical question. I'm trying to make an addin which should (using buttons in it's own ribbon tab) upload the document to my website (it's like slideshare). The problem is that this file may be already uploaded and the user may be just trying to update it.
So I need a way to tell if this file has already been uploaded. I know the prediction can't be 100% accurate, that's why I'm going to ask the user with a dialog, but I need it to be fairly clever to alert the user if the file MAY BE is already uploaded.
This assumption can be client-side only, with a database of some sort (in the addin itself).I thought of recording the file's name and based on this I can decide if the file is new or it's already uploaded.
PS. Working on Office 2010 with the latest version of VSTO in VS 2010. My main .net language is VB but samples in C# are more than welcome (if you have ones).
I am trying to save a ListObject from a .NET 3.5 Excel 2007 VSTO Workbook to a new sheet (done) and save that new sheet to a new workbook (done) without that workbook requiring the VSTO customization file (!!!!!).
Has anyone had any luck with this? The only way I've had any success is just saving as a CSV file but that's not exactly acceptable in this case. I'd rather not save to a CSV just to copy back to a XLS file.
I know how to add a single node to a top level node in an XML document, but I cant figure out how to add multiple (nested) nodes to another node. For example, I want to add this node structure to node called "PaymentInformation":
I am using this: Dim oFile As System.IO.File Dim oWrite As System.IO.StreamWriter oWrite = oFile.CreateText("e: est.txt") oWrite.WriteLine("TEST") oWrite.Close() Which works, but I would like to have it so instead of creating test.txt it names the document using multiple input text instance.
I am trying to print multiple PDF pages per sheet without a dialog, you can obviously do this while printing from adobe and using the dialog. But I just want to print from VB.
I am designing a vb.net application and I want the user to be able to access a powerpoint presentation within the windows form. Can anyone direct me to a good site with good enough instructions for VB.net (not vb 6
how to set a powerpoint presentation as the powerpoint.application.activepresentation? In the program below, when the form is loading, it will open 2 powerpoint files (Test1.ppt and Test2.ppt). After Test2.ppt is opened, it will be the activepresentation because it is opened last.What I am trying to do is when I press button1, it will set Test1.ppt as activepresentation so that when I press button4, it will show me "C:Test1.ppt".The same also goes to button2 making Test2.ppt as activepresentation..But what I get is, no matter how many times i press button1, Test2.ppt is always the activepresentation.[code]
My google skills have failed me on this, so I'm hoping that someone could point me in the right direction.I have a windows forms application that writes data to a datatable, which is then manipulated & saved into an access database. I am now looking to retrieve the data and write it out into a word document.
I'm trying to copy a Range from Excel and Paste the information in powerpoint in either the HTML or the default format, however, I am having some difficulties. I am able to get the code to work for pasting the Range as an OLE Object but nothing else. The problem with doing this is that having the embedded excel documents in the powerpoint makes the file extremely large and unstable. I just need to be able to paste the information without the embedded information where it is editable (so, not as a bitmap or picture).

I'm looking for a way to put a powerpoint presentation into a VB project I'm working on. Is this possible? I've searched google upside down, but I couldn't find anything usefull.
i am making mp3 player. i didn't wanted to use open buttons so i've associated my app with .mp3 filetype (with If (My.Application.CommandLineArgs.Count > 0) Then...)
The problem is when i want to play next song while the first one is playing it opens my program again so it plays 2 songs at the same time.
I want to do is when im opening new mp3 make it shut down the old one
I guess there is more methods that open in same app but just change the url.
When I attempt to open the visual basic window in PowerPoint 2010 I get the following message:STDOLE2.TBL could not be registered. What causes this and how is this fixed?
I created a presentation which runs in kiosk mode as a PowerPoint Macro-Enabled Show. Now the problem is, that the presentation resets itself to slide one if there is no user input for 5 minutes. How do I disable this feature?
I am using Powerpoint 2010 (Version 14.0.6112.500 (32-bit))On a side note: I already found an Add-In (KioskAssistant) which enables me to increase the time before the slide is reset. But this change is only done locally for my machine and not saved into the presentation itself. So this not a sufficient enough solution if I want to ship my presentation to my client
I'm creating a kind of 'playlist manager' application where the user can create his own music playlist and then play it from my application. However, I don't want to give my application any playback features itself, as there are already so many media players around. Instead, I just want to open the files in the current playlist in the media player of the user's choice.
I have a list of MP3 files (their filenames), how do I now open these files simultaneously in, for example, Windows Media Player? I can get it to play one song, using this command (and Process.Start)
[Code]...
Surely this must be possible? You can open multiple files in windows itself simply by selecting them and opening them at the same time. I'm pretty sure the filenames of the selected files will then be in the arguments of wmplayer so that it can open them, but I just don't know in what format.
I need some tips for shared variable to share the information for multiple running application. For example, the value of variable become 1 when a user run the first instance(execution), and become 2 when the user executes the second(in sames OS or through network).
I have a created a class, which contains a sub routine.This sub routine, should ideally be accessable by objects which are not members of the class, so I would like to make the sub, a 'shared sub' (call it Sub1).
Question: I am using many threads and there will be possibly 100s of 1000s of threads all wanting to use Sub1 (which is at present, is not shared).At present Sub1 , is not a shared sub, so every time a thread wishes to use Sub1 , I am creating a (dummy) instance of the class and then applying Sub1, to that instance.
My program works flawlessly using the above technique.Question: If I were to turn Sub1 (which is not currently shared) into a shared sub, and directly had various threads calling Sub1, would there be any issues with locking, ie. would it possible for 2 threads to enter that thread and start overwriting variables, which another thread has written to?
NOTE: there are no shared variables/properties in Sub1 and all variables used in Sub1 are declared within the sub itself.
I have an asp.net web app. It has a shared class, and I want to have the connection string the same through out the site. My string is in my web config, but I don't want to type this all over the place:
I am having this strange thing happen where I have a Module that contains multiple classes in my project. In the Solution Explorer, the module shows up as a Windows Form and if I double click on it to open it, it tries to open the Form Designer. What could be causing VS to think that it is a Windows Form instead of a module?
Consider I have a shared function:Public Shared Function CalculateAreaFromRadius(ByVal radius As Double) As Double
[Code]...
If I have two or more threads in the same vb .net app and each of them calls the shared function at the same time with different RADIUS, will they each get their own AREA? I want to know for each call to the function if it is using same local variables or each call creates new instances of local variables?Will the answers to above questions be same If I have multiple (2+) single threaded apps and they all call the function at the same time with different RADIUS value?
I am developing an access database that will be shared with multiple users.I don't want the users to access the database directly so I will have them enter new data on a data access page. The data access page is stored on a Microsoft Share Point web page, and the database is stored on a network drive.Here is my problem: When new data is entered on the web page I need it to trigger a WillChangeRecordset event; however, I have not been successful because the web page does not declare a new instance of a recordset object.At a minimum I need the new data to be processed before the web page appends the new data to the table.
Not sure if this is the right Forum to post this question. If not guide me where to post... I have an Access database that I would like to be able to share with Multiple user cuncurently... I have seen it is being done but I am not sure how? Or may be I should be using SQL Express.
I am trying to set-up a mutiple choice test and I only want the questions to show up on one form and not multiple forms. How do I do this? I want the user to answer the questions and then click a continue button and the next question will appear on the same form.
I managed encrypting an xml document by encrypting an element and then replacing the element with the encrypted data. A shown in the sample code below. Public Shared Sub Encrypt(ByVal textReader As TextReader, ByVal textWriter As TextWriter, ByVal certificateName As String)
